This paper presents an analysis of vowel reduction occurring in stress clash environments (SCE). Examples with SCE satisfy the contexts for both cyclic stress preservation and stress clash avoidance, and hence we expect to find that either of the two could potentially take place. In fact, previous studies reported that in examples with SCE, one strategy is not absolutely adopted over the other and variable outputs could emerge. Building on Hong (2015), who explored factors affecting vowel reduction in SCE, this paper presents a constraint-based analysis within the framework of Noisy Harmonic Grammar (Pater et al. 2007, Pater 2009, Boersma and Pater 2016), a version of probabilistic Optimality Theory that can effectively deal with variation based on weighted constraints. This paper then attempts to model the effect of lexical frequency adopting the frequency modeling methodology proposed by Coetzee and Kawahara (2013).
